    Temperature Readout

    I'm not concerned about the oil lasting at high temperatures, I know it can. I like to know what my engine is doing, and there is gallons of information to be had from knowing the temperature the engine is running at, even if it is only a relative temperature from normal operating. Information...

    Temperature Readout

    By gosh, this could actually work...now all I need to do is convert everyone to Celcius, so freezing and boiling point are at numbers that make sense....Seriously, what the F were people thinking when farentheigthte...however you spell it, was invented.

    Temperature Readout

    Hmm...no effect to the ECU then...interesting. There could be something in this. Although Mark's camera idea is pretty cool...it could give the left testicle monitoring capabilities I've dreamed of.

    How does reading that while riding go for you?

    Temperature Readout

    I like your thinking Phang. I did think of something similar, but I worry about how it may mess with the ECU if it does use the signal for other things...that's why I was hoping for a way to program it to pick up a different signal, then the change will only be to what is displayed not the...

    Temperature Readout

    Wouldn't that engine temperature sensor be used as part of the 'self diagnostics' that the bike has, if it is then it is already incorporated into the available signals that could be used for display. Then all that would be needed is a small hack to display this engine temp sensor instead of the...

    Temperature Readout

    I see your point, but just the flashy warning light is all you need for knowing when icy conditions are about, I'm from Canberra, I know all about icy conditions and I generally don't need a light to tell me it's cold. You can also pull over and see wtf if your oil temp is getting out of hand...

    Temperature Readout

    Hi Guys, I guess I'm getting pretty annoying with all my questions...but I swear I'm running out, so bear with me. I'm not sure what the general consensus is, but I think the ambient temperature read out on the Griso is the most useless use of permanently displayed dashboard space I've ever...

    Oil Leak

    Thanks for the links guys. I'm hoping it's just a loose fitting like nigelm's, not overly thrilled with it leaking oil, but a loose fitting is the lesser of all evils. Pete, I specifically asked, when I picked the bike up from the first service, if there were any outstanding service bulletins...

    Oil Leak

    I just got home from a nice little Friday afternoon ride where I took the long way home from work. I got off the Griso to open the garage door and looked at my tyres to see how they went. The rear looked like I had just over-lubed my chain...seeing as the Griso doesn't have a chain, and I...

    Exhaust Options

    Thanks for the responses so far guys, your thoughts and ideas are all being taken on board. I fortunately have the luxury of time (thanks to a wallet that is expanding at an exceptionally slow rate) so I will be taking my time with a selection and doing plenty of research. Everyone should feel...

    Exhaust Options

    Hi All, I've got me a new Griso 8V SE, and it is amazing, I love it! But I'd like to change the exhaust, it doesn't sound like a Guzzi should (like my Mk3 with Staintunes *drool*). So I am in the market for an after market exhaust. The only problem is I really would like the style of the...

    Service in Melbourne

    Thanks Pete and Peter, I'm under a similar understanding S4, I will have to double check my warranty book. I have heard of Brad before, I might give him a call.

    Service in Melbourne

    Hi everyone. Been a while since I posted on here...I promise to have some updates on the MK3 soon. But in the meantime I have gotten myself a brand new Griso SE (can you blame me for my absence), I'm approaching the 1000km service. I was wondering if the knowledge base here can advise me...

    LM IV - Electric Switch(?) Problems

    Go the beemer blocks with the three-button indicators set-up...just for shits and giggles.

    Restoration of the LM3

    After much research and calling around (managed to avoid the sleeping around...this time...). I have the crank in at the rebuilders to be refurbished back to standard size. Finding the rebuilders was a troubling and difficult task, their puzzling and misleading name of 'Crankshaft Rebuilders'...

    Restoration of the LM3

    Well things went from costly to bloody expensive on this project. I checked the bearing surface diameters on the crankshaft, so I would know what under-size I would need. Turns out the last time this was rebuilt it used the 3rd under size. It is now measuring well under the limits for that, so...

    LM IV - Electric Switch(?) Problems

    Always a first point of call is the fuses. Check those. Then check the switch block. WD40 is always a good thing to not go sparingly on. Finally with so many light dropping out, I would think it is a common earth somewhere. So check connections particularly ones to the frame. Deciphering the...

    Restoration of the LM3

    Thanks for the offer Pete, unfortunately I have all the engine parts with me in Melbourne, and getting them to you just wont happen with what I have going on. I have a contact with the engine builders who did the Hunwick-Hallam bike so I might be using them for some of the heavier things I...

    LM3 Workshop Manual

    Thanks John. My Italian is shocking, but the diagrams are loads better than the one I have. Should get me going I think.
